A lawyer for Antonio Brown called out the Tampa Bay Buccaneers for a "surprise attack" after the team released the receiver Thursday.
In a Twitter thread posted Sunday morning, Sean Burstyn said the Bucs engineered a "bogus scheme" to blame Brown for not showing up to doctor's appointments that were set up during non-business hours.
Burstyn accuses the Bucs of choosing an "arbitrary" time before cutting the disgruntled wideout as Brown's team was attempting to set up an appointment with those doctors.
"Knowing they can’t stand by Bruce Arians’ decision to cut AB for refusing to play through an injury, the Bucs formally claim to have fired AB for refusing to show up to a doctor’s appointment.
